Tuesday Two - Episode 27
Sorry for the lateness of the hour. I was detained at work getting ready for May Sweeps which, regrettably, begin this Thursday. I do take comfort in knowing that as I post this, it is still Tuesday in Hawaii.
For those who have never played, the rules are simple: I offer two different questions, both related to the same topic, but you only choose one of them to actually answer.
Last week, Wil of “The Daily Snooze” made sure he wasn’t napping when the Tuesday Two first appeared, because he was first to answer last week’s question about mind reading. Congratulations, Wil!
Now, onto this week’s choice of questions. And remember: don’t answer both questions!
THIS WEEK’S TOPIC: DISEASE
QUESTION A:
What disease or illness are you most afraid of and what made you become afraid of it?
or
QUESTION B:
You are given the power to eliminate one specific disease. (For example, you can’t say simply “Cancer;” you’d have to narrow it to a specific type of cancer.) Which disease would you eliminate and why?
Choose A or B, (indicate which question you’re answering!) then either answer the question in a comment or answer it in your journal and include the link in a comment. (To be considered “first to play,” a link must be to the specific entry in which you answered the question.)
Remember: choose one or the other…not both!
My Answer:
Question B: I’d eliminate ALS, a debilitating disease for which there is currently no cure at all.

Hi Patrick
I will go with question “A.”
I am most afraid of Breast Cancer. The statstics in the Northern California are staggering, and since I found a benign lump earlier this year…it has made me much more aware. The good news is it has also made me see how necessary those yearly exams are. :)Theres power in awareness.

I will answer A
I am afraid of Alzheimers and Ebola.
Ebola is just nasty…but not too common about here, so not too much worry there.
Alzheimers is I feel a cruel and horrid disease. Not only does it rob you of a lifetime of memories, and experiences, but it attacks your body as well. The idea of not knowing my own child, or my husband is a terrible thought. Not to mention loosing control of my bodies functions is a horrid thought. I know that the body deteriorates with time, but Alzheimer’s takes it faster.
I spent time working at an Alzheimrs facility…and it gave me a first hand look into this disease.
